[@ButterflyBlood]

Freezai you're the absolute goat of explaining the actual thought process of good play. I learn more from you doing it than anyone else. I really wish you would do even more live commentary, for your own play and over that of other players.

[@JaysonUbo]

"I'll go for Power Whip for guaranteed damage" "........not that guaranteed but okay"

[@rekttangela2262]

"Guaranteed damage" *Misses* Really made me laugh lol

[@globalistgamer6418]

Cursed nomenclature.

[@gaily4000]

Babe wake up Freezai uploaded

[@noobslayer7564]

probably one of the best "bad matchups" one could hope for with all those strong fairy type moves. Still a tough matchup. You played extremely well. good video

[@God-nu7hy]

i mean when theres skuntank and kingambit

[@Kyulnjir]

Definitely nice to see you back :)

[@watermelon_0182]

Glad to hear from you, and don't worry about uploads! We'll be here for when you show up again for VGC too!

[@disdjsad]

real

[@deangibbs2877]

wasn't strength sap always the play on sableye? because if it uses taunt, then nothing gained, nothing lost. You can then use power whip the following turn if it taunts.

[@lucasferro6050]

If he had used Taunt, then Freezai could've power whip'd twice

[@vincentghargrovea1881]

In a more equitable and long-term match, probably. Game lasted 17 turns though, and freezai knew what the timer would likely look like. In a quick match, damage on the enemy is more valuable than health on your own mons.

[@tylerriggs95]

Yup. And so was SD on the Skuntank.

[@matthewhendricks3557]

Strength sap is such a good move too

[@pontusandersen2823]

Love this! Been learning so much from u mr freezai sensei!

[@KonkyDonk]

Drain punch on mimikyu is better than wood hammer with life orb, grass coverage is nice but you can only use it once basically. Especially true with life orb.

[@JoshInspires]

You played extremely well honestly

[@IAmProcrastinating]

Really well played, appreciate your insights!

[@jayvo1_]

i missed u man when life gets hard it just makes my day when i see u upload. keep up the good work

[@fullywoody1743]

Keep posting! Love all your content!

[@strax5293]

Tough game, good play regardless

[@Cthulhunoms]

That was very impressive considering you had the type disadvantage the entire time. If the shoes were on the other foot you'd have probably won much faster given the same teams. Would be a funny exhibition rematch if ever they wanted to play it with you. Would watch if you posted it though. :)

[@Simon-dj8vt]

Good luck in vgc!

[@redSUPERMAN2]

God damn I love freezai's content. Actual 🐐

[@clarkkent1616]

kingambit is a monster. even +2 mimikyu would prob only do like 70, and that’s being generous. i don’t think you had any way to beat it

[@MookietheVioletSquid]

@Freezai Live you gotta change your noise gate on your mic if you have one, it's clipping the end of some of your sentences

[@KojoGotMojo]

We need that banger E4 theme a little louder 🤏

[@algar6616]

Good man

[@tiaguinho_samba]

I paused when only kingambit was alive and tried to find the win and yeah, unless you got some crazy thunderbolt paralysis, that was losing for sure Not having drain punch on mimikyu is really tough for the dark matchup but you played super well

[@hex9665]

As a ~1500 elo monoghost player I can confirm that given equal skill level, a dark type team with offensive staples (kingambit, chien pao) and defensive staples (skuntank, ting lu) beats any ghost type team 10/10 times

[@asepsisaficionado7376]

Even if you went pult on the sucker, will-o’d on the kowtow, flutter mane still died to iron head while gambit lived moonblast

[@adadaasamouh7519]

That’s why you have to hope for a crit. I’m situations like these, it’s a gamble

[@MeowModeFGC]

is that neon from valorant?

[@God-nu7hy]

really should be like best of 3 or smthn so its not entirely rng based

[@randallb2179]

Let's hope Annihilape gets unbanned so that Ghost teams can have some means to deal with Kingambit.

[@EternityGray]

Would it help if you packed a fire ghost like chandelure? That leaves skuntank.. Idk you would end up replacing so much of your team

[@globalistgamer6418]

Chandelure is not in SV but it would die to Kingambit's Sucker Punch anyway. I think Drain Punch Mimikyu would most likely be the best thing to dedicate to try to create a Kingambit check but it's already overstretched against everything else and that's after a customization that presumably is already making the team weaker on average. This matchup is so bad that it might make sense to accept taking the L at team preview.

[@oportoSMASH]

[@gabehorsley9236]

I love that mimikyu sets are basically the same in both VGC and singles now.

[@AngelLuvr]

I would have gone fluttermane on the Greninja after mimikyu fainted. Powergem ohkos gren and chien pao and gives u an extra mon to play around sucked punch. Still really hard to win from that scenario though

[@dinonuggetzzz5357]

Should of saved gengar for the end just for his ability cured body

[@shreyanshbehera8550]

yoo

[@SupThomas]

Freezai Live!!!!

[@asdfsdfsdf5114]

Why not sub at the end? If you guess wrong you get to try again a few more times. Getting Will-O wrong once instantly loses.

[@God-nu7hy]

cuz he never has to use sucker punch, he just spams kowtow. theres no getting it wrong

[@PvtVallen]

@@God-nu7hy No reason to not play for the choke.

[@God-nu7hy]

@@PvtVallen theres no world where someone at that level presses sucker punch

[@LegalizeCrystalWeedd]

Loved the video but i think you need a new microphone

[@nomatyx5789]

Man, these players are awful. There's no type diversity in these teams.
